Old TV Shows Off Of Nick

Hopefully you will rember most of these old tv shows that use to be aired on nickloedon

The following five tv shows that have been taken off the air either because of not enough viewers, maybe some parents thought that the tv show was to violent or used strongly suggested words, or maybe because nick just did'nt think that the tv show was going to work out.

5.Rocko's Modern Life
Most people have got to remeber this show. It originally started in Austrailia it aired from 1993-1996. Nick does sometimes show re-runs of this show and you can get a certain nick station that still airs it. My personal opionon is that I loved this cartoon very much.
This cartoon was about a wallabe that obviously lives in Austrailia and has many adventures with his friends. Although not everything turns out like it is suppose to. I can say that everytime I think of the theme song to Rocko's Modern Life it stays in my head because of the catchy jingle.

4. Invader Zim
Oh yeah Invader Zim this show did not stay on for long. Probally because not many parents found it very amusing for their kids to watch. This show aired from 2001-2002.
Besides its creepy stories and strange animation kids seemed to love "Invader Zim". Though not many kids ages 2-11 seemed to watch this show very much. Its country of origin was usa.

3.CatDog
Even the name of this show wants to make you watch it. Its country of origin is usa and it aired from 1998-2001.
This show is about two brothers (a cat and a dog) who was born connected to each other, catch the name CatDog. This show was very funny to watch to see how a cat and a dog could live with each other, espically if they could never leave each others side. This show had 65 episodes including a series finale movie "The Great Parent Mystery", where CatDog meets there parents. I also found out that an episode of CatDog was banned from nickelodeon. This was due to rumors saying that it is pornographic (due to nick standerds) and contained large amounts of toilet humor.

2. Rocket Power
This show lasted a little longer then some of them. Its country of origin is usa, and it aired from 1999-2004.
This show was about 4 friends that loved to do play anything that had snow or water in it and they loved to ride anything with wheels. There was 64 episodes Rocket Power along with a few movies.

1.Blues Clues
Even though this show aired on Nick Jr. it still counts. Blues Clues is about a dog and her owner Steve who hunt for clues around there house and go on many adventures. This show aired from 1996-2001 with the host of Steve. Sadly though in 2001 Steve left the show to start a music career and go off to college and was then replaced with his brother Joe, 2001-?. Along with the series Blues Clues there was another one called Blues Room were Blue could talk, and an episode were Blue got a little brother.
Originally this show was suppose to be starring a cat but nick already had a show starring a cat so they replaced it with a dog. There was also rumors about Steve that he had died from drug-related problems. These rumors had gotten so bad that he had to go on the Rosie O' Donnell Show to reassure his young audience that he was live and well.

I loved all of those shows. Especially Invader Zim and Rocko. What happened to Nick? There's hardly any animated shows (iCarly, True Jackson...?) and the animated shows they DO have suck. I feel bad for this generation of young'ins that are forced to get sucked in to watching this garbage. Their warped brains would explode if they watched the shows we did as little kids.

i loved all the old shows. In Canada our nick is actually YTV, just because it had pretty much most of the shows the nick did-and of course, some Canadian shows. My favortie shows were goosebumps, are you araid of the dark?, stikin' around, cat and dog, angry beavers, and so many others. If anyone would like to sign my petitions to bring back all the old shows just go to www.petitionspot.com/petitions/204060ll. When i reach my goal of 10,000 signatures, i am going to send the petitions to all of the tv station-at least the ones that use to air the shows we loved. When they see how many people have signed they might reconsider. Come on guys we can bring some of the shows back, if we try.

I remember Rocko's Modern Life came on Nickelodeon when I was 8 or 9 and Blue's Clues came on Nick Jr when I was in 5th grade and Rocket Power and Catdog came on when I was in middle school. Invader Zim came on Nickelodeon when I was in high school.

None of those shows could really be considered "Classic Nickelodeon" by my standards.

The early Blues Clues was great. After a while it degraded and now ceases to exist except in the form of a completely new show, that has nothing to do with the old original bit of 10 years prior (man i can't believe its been that long).

CatDog was crap. I hated that show when it was on, and I hate it now. Invader Zim rocked, but it's not "old". You can still buy Invader Zim stuff at Hot Topic. Rocko's Modern Life kicked so much butt. Rocket Power was absolute POOP. Sorry, there's no nice way of putting it! Rocket Power was the show that officially turned me off from Nickelodeon. It tried WAY too hard to be trendy. And it's nowhere near old.

But yeah about the Blue's Clues thing. Steve rocks. His music videos for his new music stuff crack me up. Joe sucks. I remember when the Nickelodeon Hotel first opened and Joe was in the bar...He got so drunk, he fell off his barstool. I was there!

Umm...I thought Rocko lived in O-Town. I really don't think he lived in Austrailia, because he was the only one with an accent. I loved Salute Your Shorts. Am I the only one who remembers Welcome Freshmen?

Invader Zim was a great show, but it's not old. At least, not old compared to some of the stuff they used to show. I was hoping to see some really OLD stuff in this article. Shows like Spartikus, The 7 Cities of Gold, and You Can't Do That on Television. Now THOSE were classic Nick.

"what about the show about the camp?" salute your shorts.
yeah OLD is like pinwheel and today's special. rocko and are you afraid of the dark JUST made it. i don't understand users that think spongebob and family guy are retro. heh.

I agree with Rocko being on this list , but none of the other shows. They're all to recent to be labled "Old" yet. Plus, these shows (with the exception of Rocko and Invader Zim) are still shown on Nicklelodeon, be it early in the morning or on weekends.

It's not the shows that you picked that bothered me, everyone has different tastes and it seems that you might be a younger member. I found it hard to keep reading because of your sentence structure and grammar. You left a lot of "room for improvement".

Rocko is the only "old" show I'm seeing here, everything else is too new. I would have added "Ahh! Real Monsters","Ren and Stimpy", and if you were going to consider any live action shows there's always Legends of the Hidden Temple, GUTS, Wild n' Crazy Kids, Double Dare, Pete and Pete, Clarissa Explains it All, Nick Arcade, to name a few.
